[ That he loses somebody important and she has to make him feel better, he means. Losing someone always sucks, and he isn't sure how well his coping mechanisms are now. ]
[Miu pauses, struck a moment by how utterly sincere he is about that.]
Ah... [She doesn't know what to say. After a moment she moves to snuggle up against his side.] ...Sometimes... You're almost too good to be true, you know? What did I do to get this lucky?
[She reaches out to push some of his hair away from his face, smoothing her hand down to cup his cheek briefly before she pulls her hand away. She's fading fast too, ready to sleep.

I know you can't feel better right away, but I'll do my best to cheer you up, Miu-san.
[ He strokes her hair gently as he says that, too. ]

no subject
Miu sighs deeply, like Akashi's making the Most Unreasonable Request Ever.]
Do I have to? You'll keep me warm, right?
no subject
I— Well, yes, but. . . [ It's the right thing to do!! ]
no subject
She laughs and leans over to kiss him again, before rolling off of him to at least find his shirt again to pull back over her head.]
There. Better? [She flops back onto the bed, turning to face him.]
no subject
[ He slowly sinks himself into the bed so he can properly lay down. ]
At least now I can rest knowing you won't get sick.

You always say that.

[She reaches out to push some of his hair away from his face, smoothing her hand down to cup his cheek briefly before she pulls her hand away. She's fading fast too, ready to sleep.
But first:] I love you.

[ And he doesn't have to tell her that that's a promise. He's going to do everything he can to be wherever she is. ]
